P3 Scooter Session

We had great fun using the scooters, learning games and taking part in an obstacle course. Look how low the limbo stick went!!!

P1 news

We had a very active week in Primary 1 this week. We enjoyed our visit from the SSPCA where we learned all about Scottish wildlife and what to do if we found any animals that were sick or in danger.

We also went on a Santa Stroll around our school grounds and the surrounding area. It was great fun! We had to spot letter clues on our journey and note them down in pairs. At the end we slid all the sounds together to make a Christmas phrase…’ Santa Claus’.

Busy Day in P6

The Primary 6s had a fun-packed day today; we had a visit from SSPCA Officer Lyndsey, who led a fun and informative session about the work done by this organisation. We had a chance to ‘rescue’ a variety of animals and then used coding to program a virtual cat!

In the afternoon, we settled down to watch our yearly festive panto. This year’s show was ‘Puss’n’Boots’, which was streamed live into our classrooms and which we all thoroughly enjoyed; plenty of audience participation and some yummy snacks too (thank you, PSC).

P5, P5/4 and P4 Fischy Music

We were lucky to have the opportunity to take part in a Fischy Music session last week. Everyone was so excited to see the people from Fischy Music who we have seen so many times on screen in Assemblies! We sang songs that we know so well and we learned a few new songs too. One of the songs reminded us of the importance of friendship and the qualities that make a good friend.

We really enjoyed our learning and Miss Cameron, Miss Beattie and Miss Marra certainly spotted some future performers among us. We are looking forward to using some of the new songs we learned to support our learning in class.

Article 29: We have the right to develop our talents and abilities.

P3 Art

The pupils drew still life pictures using beautiful flowers as their inspiration. They were trying to add lots of detail. Amazing concentration and great works of art.

P3 Fischy Music

This week we were very lucky to receive a visit from Fischy Music. It was amazing to see them as we sing their songs during assembly most weeks. We got to sing and dance along to tunes we know and learn some new ones too. Great fun was had by all.

P3 Book Week

We had lots of fun activities to help in our learning this week. We received new books for our class library and have been reading them each day when the bell rang to tell us to ‘Drop everything & read’. We were read some new stories and created a big display with our ideas from the book Octopus Shocktopus. We used an idea from the book to design and label our perfect house. We took part in ‘design a book mark’ competition. We learned about exclamation marks and found some in books in the class. We listened to David Williams & Julia Donaldson on Author’s Live. We took our books to the playground to read during Outdoor Learning. We found verbs in our reading books, completed some Readingwise and Giglets tasks and we each received our ‘Read, Write, Count’ bags containing two new books and lots of other surprises.
